Vance and Usha marry in an interfaith ceremony, blending Christian and Hindu traditions.

In 2014, J.D. Vance married Usha Chilukuri in an interfaith ceremony that blended Christian and Hindu traditions, reflecting their diverse backgrounds and shared values. Usha, a law school classmate of Vance’s at Yale, comes from a South Indian family and practices Hinduism, while Vance identifies with Christianity, influenced by his upbringing in the American Rust Belt. Their wedding was a celebration of both cultures, honoring their respective religious traditions. The interfaith ceremony symbolized the couple’s commitment to understanding and embracing each other’s heritage. Vance has spoken in interviews and his memoir Hillbilly Elegy about the positive impact Usha has had on his life, describing her as a supportive partner throughout his personal and professional journey. The couple's marriage represents not only the blending of their personal beliefs but also a bridge between two distinct cultural worlds. Together, they have navigated their careers and family life, with Usha going on to become a law clerk for Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, while Vance pursued his path as an author, venture capitalist, and politician. #JDVance #UshaVance #InterfaithMarriage #ChristianHinduWedding #HillbillyElegy #MomentsOfLife #MoofLife_Moment #MoofLife
